[Specific implementation method]

The terms used in this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application. For example, the terms "upper," "lower," "front," and "back" used below to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based solely on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely to facilitate and simplify the description of this application. They do not indicate or imply that the device referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed or operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting this application.

Existing outdoor garden lawn mowers have no footrests or only have footrests at the front of the mower, so the driver and passengers often need to step over the front protective cover from the front of the mower to get on the vehicle, or avoid the cutting table from both sides and take big steps to find a foothold. It is easy to stumble with the vehicle and cause injuries to the user. If the user steps on the cutting table, the cutting table parts may be deformed or partially damaged.

For example, when a user rides on an outdoor garden mower located on a flat surface, the direction the user is facing is defined as the front, the direction facing away from the user is defined as the back, the direction on the left hand side is defined as the left, the direction on the right hand side is defined as the right, the direction close to the ground is defined as the bottom, and the direction away from the ground is defined as the top.

Figures 1 to 20 illustrate an outdoor lawn mower according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, which is widely used in fields such as vegetation trimming. As shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, the outdoor lawn mower includes a main body, which comprises a main frame 1, a seat 6, a cutting assembly 2, a traveling assembly 3, an operating assembly 4, and a power supply 5. The main frame 1 extends along a first straight line 101 parallel to the front-to-back direction. The seat 6 is mounted on the main frame 1 for a user to sit on. The main frame 1 also mounts the cutting assembly 2, the traveling assembly 3, the operating assembly 4, and the power supply 5. The power supply 5 provides energy to the cutting assembly 2 and the traveling assembly 3, enabling the cutting assembly 2 to perform cutting operations and enabling the traveling assembly 3 to support the main frame 1 and associated components thereon. The main body also includes a first mounting position and a second mounting position, different from the first mounting position, disposed on the main body, and at least one support assembly 7, which is configured to connect to at least one of the first and second mounting positions to support a user aboard the outdoor lawn mower.

As shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, the cutting assembly 2 serves as a power output component for outputting power to realize the mowing function of the electric lawn mower. The cutting assembly 2 is arranged in a group or groups. The cutting assembly 2 is arranged below the main frame 1. In one embodiment, the cutting assembly 2 includes: a cutter disc, a mowing element, and a mowing motor. The mowing element is used to cut vegetation while rotating at high speed. For example, the mowing element is a blade for cutting vegetation on the lawn. The cutter disc is formed with a mowing space for accommodating the mowing element, and the mowing element is at least partially located within the mowing space.

In some embodiments, the number of mowing elements can be two, and the number of mowing motors can also be two. Accordingly, the two mowing motors each drive the two mowing elements. In some embodiments, the number of mowing elements can be three, and the number of mowing motors can also be three. The three mowing motors each drive the three mowing elements. Of course, the cutting assembly 2 can also be removed from the outdoor garden mower.

It is understandable that the cutting component 2 can be replaced with a snow shoveling component or other components. Therefore, the outdoor garden mower can not only cut vegetation, but also replace the cutting component 2 with functional components such as snow shoveling, snow sweeping, snow blowing, and flushing. Those skilled in the art should be able to adaptively replace various functional components without creative work, and the above should all be included in the protection scope of this embodiment.

As shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, the travel assembly 3 includes travel wheels mounted on the main frame 1 and a travel motor for driving the travel wheels. The travel wheels are positioned on both sides of the main frame 1 to maintain the center of gravity of the outdoor garden lawn mower within the main frame 1, thereby reducing the chance of the outdoor garden lawn mower tipping over during travel. In one embodiment, the number of travel wheels is set to four, including two front travel wheels 31 and two rear travel wheels 32.

The front travel wheel 31 can be a universal wheel. A travel motor is connected to the rear travel wheel 32 and drives the rear travel wheels 32 to rotate. Both rear travel wheels 32 are equipped with travel motors. The speeds of the two travel motors can be the same or different. When the user is driving the outdoor garden mower straight, the speeds of the two travel motors are approximately the same. When the user is turning, the speeds of the two travel motors are different, and the outdoor garden mower turns toward the side with the lower travel motor speed. In some embodiments, the diameter of the front travel wheel 31 is smaller than the diameter of the rear travel wheel 32. Of course, the number of travel wheels can also be set to 3 or 5.

As shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, the operating assembly 4 includes a first operating lever and a second operating lever disposed on the left and right sides of the outdoor garden mower. A user manipulates the first and second operating levers to control the outdoor garden mower to move forward, backward, or turn. The operating assembly 4 may also be a steering wheel capable of controlling the outdoor garden mower.

As shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, the power supply device 5 can include multiple types of battery packs, such as large-capacity battery packs and small-capacity battery packs. The large-capacity battery pack can provide longer battery life for outdoor garden mowers, while the small-capacity battery pack can power other power tools, such as lawn mowers, pruners, hair dryers, chainsaws, and other garden tools. In addition, the small-capacity battery pack can also power torque-generating tools such as electric drills and electric hammers; sawing tools such as electric circular saws, jigsaws, and reciprocating saws; and grinding tools such as angle grinders and sanders.

It should be understood that, as shown in Figures 3 and 18 to 20, since the main body includes the main frame 1, seat 6, cutting assembly 2, travel assembly 3, operating assembly 4, and power supply device 5, the support assembly 7 can be installed on any one of the main frame 1, seat 6, cutting assembly 2, travel assembly 3, operating assembly 4, and power supply device 5, or any combination of them. Preferably, the support assembly 7 is installed on the main frame 1. Since the main frame 1 has a large load-bearing capacity and is mostly made of rigid materials, it is not easily deformed and can provide better rigid support for the support assembly 7.

As shown in Figure 1, in one embodiment, the travel assembly 3 includes a front travel wheel 31 and a swivel member 11 capable of supporting the front travel wheel 31 for radial rotation. The swivel member 11 is capable of rotating about a first axis 102. In the direction of the first straight line 101, the vertical distance L2 between the first axis 102 and the support assembly 7 is greater than or equal to 150 mm and less than or equal to 300 mm. Preferably, the vertical distance L2 between the first axis 102 and the support assembly 7 is 150 mm, 200 mm, or 300 mm. In the direction of the first straight line 101, the vertical distance between the first axis 102 and the support assembly 7 is greater than the radius of rotation L4 of the front travel wheel 31. This provides a relatively suitable distance between the support assembly 7 and the front travel wheel 31, making it easier for users to get on and off the lawn mower while preventing interference with the steering and movement of the front travel wheel 31. Specifically, the swivel member 11 is a connecting fork connected to the axis of the front travel wheel 31. Preferably, the front travel wheel 31 is a universal wheel.

As shown in Figure 8, in one embodiment, the cutting assembly 2 also includes a cutting motor. The vertical distance between the cutting motor and the support assembly 7, along the first straight line 101, is greater than or equal to 50 mm and less than or equal to 500 mm. This ensures that the support assembly 7 does not interfere with the cutting motor in the front-to-back direction of the outdoor garden mower, thereby preventing it from affecting its normal operation. Preferably, the vertical distance between the cutting motor and the support assembly 7 is 50 mm, 200 mm, or 500 mm.

In another embodiment, the cutting assembly 2 further includes a cutting motor. The vertical distance between the cutting motor and the support assembly 7 in the direction of the second axis 103 is greater than or equal to 300 mm. This ensures that the cutting motor does not interfere with the support assembly 7 in the left-right direction of the outdoor garden mower. Preferably, the vertical distance between the cutting motor and the support assembly 7 is 300 mm or 350 mm.

In one embodiment, the support assembly 77 includes a support member 72. The length L1 of the support member 72 along the first straight line 101 is greater than or equal to 50 mm and less than or equal to 400 mm. This is approximately the maximum outer width of the soles of the feet when standing with both feet together, which can accommodate various usage scenarios, such as a user stepping on the bike with one foot or with both feet.

In one embodiment, the support assembly 7 includes a support member 72, and the walking assembly 3 includes rear walking wheels 32 that rotate about the second axis 103103. In the direction of the second axis 103103, the width W1 of the support member 72 is greater than or equal to 100 mm and less than or equal to 250 mm. This ensures that most of the sole of the user's foot rests on the support member 72 when standing.

As shown in Figure 1 , the travel assembly 3 exemplarily includes rear travel wheels 32 that rotate about a second axis 103. In the direction of the first straight line 101, the vertical distance L3 between the second axis 103 and the support assembly 7 is greater than or equal to 600 mm and less than or equal to 850 mm. This arrangement makes the layout of the support assembly 7 on the outdoor garden mower more reasonable. Preferably, the vertical distance L3 between the second axis 103 and the support assembly 7 is 600 mm, 750 mm, or 850 mm.

As shown in Figure 2 , the travel assembly 3 further includes two rear travel wheels 32. In the direction of the second axis 103, the distance between the outermost sides of one rear travel wheel 32 and the outermost sides of the other rear travel wheel 32 is a first distance W2. Two support assemblies 7 are provided on the main body. In the direction of the second axis 103, the distance between the outermost sides of one support assembly 7 and the outermost sides of the other support assembly 7 is a second distance W3. The first distance W2 is greater than the second distance W3. This arrangement ensures that the support assemblies 7 do not extend beyond the left-right width of the outdoor lawn mower, thereby preventing additional constraints or interference when the outdoor lawn mower is moving forward or backward, thereby improving the user's driving experience.

As shown in FIG1 , in one exemplary embodiment, the vertical distance H2 between the lowest end of the support assembly 7 and the uppermost end of the cutting assembly 2 is greater than or equal to 5 mm. This ensures that the support assembly 7 does not interfere with the mowing operation and the lifting and lowering adjustment of the cutting assembly 2. Preferably, the vertical distance H2 between the lowest end of the support assembly 7 and the uppermost end of the cutting assembly 2 is 5 mm, 10 mm, or 20 mm.

As shown in Figure 1, in one embodiment, the vertical distance H1 between the lowest end of the support assembly 7 and the plane is greater than or equal to 120 mm and less than or equal to 800 mm. Maintaining an appropriate distance between the support assembly 7 and the plane facilitates the user's access to and from the outdoor lawn mower. Preferably, the vertical distance H1 between the lowest end of the support assembly 7 and the plane is 120 mm, 500 mm, or 800 mm.

As shown in FIG6 and FIG9 , in one embodiment, the support assembly 7 includes a support member 72 and connecting members 71 connected to both ends of the support member 72 . The connecting members 71 are connected to the main body, thereby achieving connection of the support assembly 7 to the main body.

As shown in FIG4 , in one embodiment, the support assembly 7 includes: a connecting member 71 connected to the main body; a support member 72; and a hinge member 74 connected to the connecting member 71 and the support member 72, respectively, to enable the support member 72 to pivot relative to the connecting member 71 between an open position and a stowed position. This allows the support assembly 7 to be stowed when not in use without affecting the installation or maintenance of other components, while also saving space occupied by the support assembly 7 itself. Preferably, the hinge member includes a rotation axis.

Furthermore, a guide groove 712 is provided on the connecting member 71, and a guide member 722 capable of moving in the guide groove 712 is provided on the support member 72; when the support member 72 is in the open position, the guide member 722 is located at one end of the guide groove 712, and in this position, one end of the guide groove 712 supports the guide member 722, so that the support member 72 is roughly in a horizontal state, so that the user can board the outdoor garden mower through the support member 72; when the support member 72 is in the retracted position, the guide member 722 is located at the other end of the guide groove 712, and in this position, the support member 72 is roughly in a vertical state, so as to save the space occupied by itself and avoid interference with other components.

In one embodiment, the connecting member 71 and the supporting member 72 may be fixedly connected by welding.

As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , in one embodiment, the present application further discloses that the support assembly 7 can be removed from the first installation position and installed in the second installation position.

In one embodiment, along the first straight line 101, the first mounting position and the second mounting position are located on both sides of the main frame 1. This allows the support assembly 7 to be installed on both sides or on either side of the main frame 1. This allows the user to access the outdoor garden mower from the other side when one side of the main frame 1 is inconvenient.

In a preferred embodiment, the first mounting position and the second mounting position have the same structure, which simplifies and facilitates the processing of the first mounting position and the second mounting position, and also makes it easy and quick to remove the support assembly 7 from one side of the main frame 1 and install it on the other side.

In one specific embodiment, both the first and second mounting locations are first connection holes 12 provided on the main frame 1. A second connection hole 714 is provided on the support member 72. The first connection hole 12 and the second connection hole 714 are connected via a connector 9 to assemble the support assembly 7 to the main frame 1. Assembling the support assembly 7 to the main frame 1 via the connector 9 allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the support assembly 7 from the main frame 1. The connector 9 may be a latch, etc.
